Chemical Reactions:
Sodium Bicarbonate=NaHCO3
Calcium Chloride=CaCl2
Water=H2O
Bromothymol Blue=C27H28Br205S


1. My buddies and I do not feel bound to the energy level of one atom in particular, so we can swim freely throughout the substance.

Type of bond: Metallic
Characteristics: Substances are good conductors of electric current. There is an attraction of positive ions and free-moving electrons.

2. I might change sides at the start, but once I end up on one side or the other I stick to my decision.

Type of bond: Ionic
Characteristics: Compounds have crystal-lattice structure. There's a transfer of electrons. Metal reacts with nonmetals.


3. I do not feel partial to either of the atoms in my bond. To be fair, the other bonding electron and I divide our time between the bonded atoms.

Type of bond: Covelant
Characteristics: There's an attraction between nuclei and shared electrons. Two or more nonmetals are involved.

Sports:

Football: Is ionic because the teams switch side at the end of every quarter just like ionic bonds switch between the two atoms until the pick one side and stick to it.


Boxing: Is metallic because in boxing you are moving freely trying not to get hit just like a metallic bond has an attraction to freely moving electrons.

Track: Is covalent because it is an individual sport but you score points for the team just like covalent bonds are individual but share their atoms.
